    Thanks to both of you for your research. We'll add some of this information to the record the next time we update.

  • Mark in NOVA said:
    I think the painter realized later on in the process that he needed to shorten the name "San Franciso" Otherwise it would say "Philly to Frisco".

    It´s intersting that nobody is smiling. Only one cheaky boy has a grin in the face. From driver`s head to the left (over the belly of the officer) - and there he is.

    "It´s intersting that nobody is smiling."' That's because a police officer showed up.

    This photo ran in The Sunday Oregonian. (Portland, Ore.) on July 26, 1914 with the following story: "Harris and Cramer are an adventurous team who started from Philadelphia a few days ago to travel to the San Francisco Exposition in their "pushmobile." They will alternate in riding and pushing." oregonnews.uoregon.edu/lccn/sn83045782/1914-07-26/ed-1/se...

Actors parade (LOC)

    Striking cast members of the Broadway show "At 9:45" parade down Broadway in the Actor's Parade on August 18, 1919. The banner suggests 100% of the company supports the strike by Actor's Equity Association. Actors joined by stage managers, stagehands, chorus girls, musicians, variety artists and musical artists went on strike forcing shows all over the country to shut down. It was one of the most significant strikes in labor history as it reshaped the definition of labor.
    "The parade of the actors down Broadway was staged despite the drizzling rain, which kept down the numbers of those along the line of the march but did not in any way affect the numbers or spirits of those in the procession. It was led by Major Reginald Barlow and several hundred actors who had served overseas, many of them in uniform."  [1]
    The biggest stars of the time locked arms with their lesser known brethren – several thousand strong – and paraded down Broadway in full solidarity. The parade kicked off a week of benefit performances for Equity at the Lexington Avenue Opera House. Eventually, the producers had no choice but to recognize Actors' Equity Association (AEA) as the bargaining agent for their performers.   [2]

    "At 9:45", by Owen Davis was performed at the Playhouse Theatre on Broadway, June 28 - October 1, 1919. It starred George Backus (1857-1939), Clifford Dempsey (1865-1938), Madeleine King and Noel Tearle who are likely shown parading in this photograph. Other members of the company (who may be in this photograph) were Idalene Cotton, Marie Goff, Harry Green, Nedda Harrigan, John Harrington, Frank Hatch, Frank Hilton, Peter Lang, Leo Mielziner, Gustave Rolland, Edith Shayne, and Robert Thorne. "At 9:45" was directed by John Cromwell. This photograph is looking north on Broadway between 37th and 38th St. The bottom of the sign ("ANDIE") for the Hotel Normandie can be seen top, leftish. (This view was likely taken from the 2nd floor of the Regal Shoe Store at the corner of 37th Street). Just beyond the Hotel Normandie is the Casino Theater (1882-1929), said to be the best example of Moorish architecture in the country. It was the first theatre with a roof garden, the first to be entirely lit by electricity, and the first to feature a chorus line – the Floradora Girls, who included Evelyn Nesbit, over whom Harry K. Thaw murdered Stanford White (1853-1906). [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]
